Math Problem Statement
Find the measure of ∠M and** ∠O in** Δ MNO.
Solution
The triangle is given as an isosceles triangle with . In an isosceles triangle, the two base angles are equal. Since , the base angles are and .
Let .
The sum of the angles in any triangle is always . Therefore, we have:
Simplifying this equation:
So, the measures of the angles are:
